546. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "When the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ had prayed Subh, the women would depart, wrapped in their wrappers, unrecognizable because of the darkness." (Sahîh)

Arabic text

545 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: «إِنْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيُصَلِّي الصُّبْحَ فَيَنْصَرِفُ النِّسَاءُ مُتَلَفِّعَاتٍ بِمُرُوطِهِنَّ مَا يُعْرَفْنَ مِنَ الْغَلَسِ»

Commentary

Allâh's Messenger ﷺ generally performed the prayer (Salât Al-Fajr) in the early phase of semidarkness (known in Arabic as Ghalas) and completed it also in the semidarkness. Therefore, when the womenfolk used to go out (of the mosque) to return to their homes, with their wrappers draped over themselves, nobody would recognize them, on account of the lingering darkness (Ghalas).
